TL;DR

  • A SaaS management platform gives IT teams total visibility into every app in use across the organization to manage costs, secure access, and maintain compliance.

  • SMPs reveal every app in play, who's using it, and how often. It identifies redundancies and ensures your tech stack stays lean and efficient.

  • Without oversight, subscription costs balloon. SMPs flag unused or duplicate apps to offer a clear path to budget-friendly app management.

  • Each app has a potential security gap. SMPs monitor access and permissions, keeping your environment secure and compliant, especially during offboarding.

  • When choosing a platform, prioritize real-time app discovery, in-depth usage analytics, automated license management, seamless integrations, and security controls to maximize your SaaS ROI.
